You're Going To Be Okay


Smile, even if you are all alone.

Laugh, even if you cannot breathe.

Try, even if it could lead to failure.

No matter what they say, 

You're going to be okay.

For each morning you open your eyes,

It is a brand new day.

Speak, even if no words will come out.

Stand tall, even if your knees are threatening to collapse.

Keep moving forward, even if there is nowhere to go. 

No matter what they say, 

You're going to be okay. 

For with each passing moment,

Life could easily be taken away. 

So live your life, even if there is nothing to live for.

Love yourself, even if no one else will.

Dance your heart out all the pain, even if it is pouring rain.

For no matter what they say,

You're going to be okay.
